In reply to Anonymous. Correct, they do change with the conveyor belt method in solo, but I often run into the issue of not having any good choices with the new tiles drawn. It makes for some interesting decisions in terms of which tiles to choose knowing that the furthest one will be discarded each round, though!

What do you mean by “way to cycle out the available tiles”? In Calico solo you’re supposed to discard one tile from the market every round, so they change fairly quickly.

In reply to Kamio. I hope you have a great time with the scenarios! Great notes about the other games in this trilogy. No surprise here that I'll have some upcoming posts about the others. I think everyone will have their preferences, yet each one is great in its own way. Hurray for these beautiful, cozy games!

It’s been a few years since I played Calico, but I do intend to pull it out soon and try out the scenarios! (I haven’t done any of them yet.)

My favorite game of this trio would be Verdant, just because I love plants and those little leaf and pot meeples. I did start the scenario for that game and really enjoyed it!

While I’m at it, I’ll also have to play Cascadia again and the new expansion.
